A Startling Phenomenon.

The gift of tongues" has hitherto
been considered as special blessing
communicated by the spirit of pente-
cost. But peasant of Westernhausen,
in the Kingdom of Wurtemberg, Ger
many, is reported to be possessed of
that gift now. The girl is nineteen
years old and reported to be sound and
hearty every morning. but hardly do
the shades of evening begin to fall
when she is attacked by nervous
twitchings. In that condition she is
troubled with knack of mind-reading,
and if asked questions in tongues she
does not understand while the sun is
shedding his full light upon her she
will answer in the same tongues dur
ing the hours of darkness. Less re-
markable is the darkness in which her
medical attendants profess to be re-
garding the true inwardness of her
condition. She is also reported to shed
her hair periodically, as four-footers
will do in summer time, and to grow a
new perwig as regularly. So the
medical men are dumfounded at the
PHILADELPHIA Call.

A Maiden and a Dude.

An amusing stratagem is reported
from Paris. A young American lady
was annoyed by the attentions of a
strange Frenchman. She consulted
her aunt and plan was laid. The
next day the young woman encountered
her admirer, who invited her to break
fast. She returned the invitation and
he accepted. On reaching her apart
ment the young man was startled by
the appearance of her aunt. "My
aunt" explained the young woman.
this poor fellow is hungry, and 1 told
him 1 thought we could find him some
thing to eat" "Oh, certainly" an
swered the kind-hearted aunt. "Ma-
rie," she called out to the slim maid,
stake this man to the kitchen and give
him some bread and meat" The I'M
happy young Frenchman was shown
through the door into the kitchen,
whence he was able to escape by the
servants stairway. Boston Journal.

the garden of the curate of Pren1itz
(Moravia). The apparatus WAS COM

which plunged at their base in the orc.
All the system was united to the earth
by a large chain. The enemies of
Diwisch, jealous of his success at the
court of Vienna, excited the peasants
of the locality against him. and under
the pretext that his lightning rod WAS
the cause of the great drought, they
made him take down the lightning rod
which he had utilized for six years.
What is most curious is the form of this
first lightning rod, which was of multi
pie points like the one which NJ Nielsen
afterward invented. Boston BuGqet.
